Hey All!
Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board.
They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things.
The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to.
DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES!
They often state something like this:
”Hello!
Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]”
If you receive any strange messages:
Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not.
Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out!
Beware of anything that might seem fishy!
And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username.
You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our!
All the best! And be safe!

I have only been here since 2012 so that makes me a relative newcomer and I can’t remember what the forum looked like back then.
I do know the knowledge and passion of some of you fellows is encyclopedic and therefore I read far more than contribute.
I am pretty sure I ran across an iteration of...
Wow nice find!
There is a link at the top of the page that will help you age this beauty.
Yes it looks like a factory engraving and a somewhat rarer one to boot.
Congratulations on your purchase.

You got it.
Like yourself I started out with one and that
leads to another and
"I always found that to be an interesting caliber" and
"just in case I go out west" and
"wasn't really looking for, but" and
" at that price it seemed too good to pass up"...
not to mention this group of enablers...
Sorry for your loss.
It’s a shame the way money can mess up some families.
Cling to the good memories and let the bitter ones go.
Enjoy your inheritance as best you know how.
Best regards

You may wish to contact Turnbull Restoration in Bloomfield N.Y.
I have not the means for their services however they are highly regarded by both Colt and Winchester folks.
Great project you have taken on by the way and best of luck.
